Event Description : EXHIBITION "Fourth Dimension" a Group Show of Photographs by Amit Sharma, Idris Ahmed, Sanjay Das & Shabir Hussain Santosh
Fourth Dimension – A group photography exhibition brings together the work of four celebrated photographers – Amit Sharma, Idris Ahmed, Sanjay Das and Shabir Hussain Santosh – who explore the significance of the flow of time through the attendant stillness of their images.
The photographers with expansive practices will display a collection of works both past and new at the exhibition and their photographs explores the working of Fourth dimension or time frozen in each of the photographs, never to be replicated again. Each photograph at the exhibition holds within it a microcosm of time – time that flows with the mental states of the viewer or is arrested by the fancy of the photographer; time that encapsulates a lifetime of memories and dreams or time that envelops eternal moments of stillness. After all, a photograph is merely a two-dimensional object, yet it successfully conveys the impression of three dimensions; so why not a fourth?
On display are stunning images which have heart-warming stories behind them, like Amit Sharma’s candid photograph of a monk with arms outstretched, seemingly foreboding, is imbued with different associations for different people. And yet, seconds after the photo was clicked, the monk completed the simple act of cocooning himself in a blanket – a feeble attempt to ward off the biting cold. Amit says, “In today’s world of digital super connectivity, photography creates a possibility to be aware of and connect with the real world". A Delhi based photographer for Amit, an image is a perspective bound by light and the lack of it. Working for the last two decades his works revolving around lifestyle, advertising and travel photography has found place in all major publications in the country for both national and international brands. While Idris Ahmed, left his job as a teacher to pursue photography and loves to travel to capture images of Indian landscapes and culture. Reimagining the world through his viewfinder, his solitary figures from Spiti, traverses the realm of spirituality bring to mind turiya, the fourth and highest state of consciousness. Turiya is a concept, in Vedantic philosophy wherein an individual attains union with the eternal Self. Idris runs Photocommune, a collective of photography enthusiasts and his moto to life and work is best summed up as, “Focus is imperative, both in photography and life!"
Through his photographs, Sanjay Das, an alumnus of College of Art, New Delhi and an advertising professional creates a unique imagery which tells a story - in colour, in texture, in light and in shadow and form a unique blend, which is spiritually as well as mentally rewarding. He says, “I have always been drawn to capture the mystery of a fleeting moment through my lens” In his series, the separation of time is clearly marked by the ritual adornment of a Theyyam performer who undergoes an elaborate process where the face is painted in bright combinations of red, orange or black in intricate patterns. This transforms him from a man from the lower rungs of society to the god or goddess belonging to a temple that temporarily manifests itself in the body of an empowered man (the performer), thereby elevating him to a divine status. Nostalgia reverberates in the panoramic images of Shabir Hussain Santosh – each frame is seeped with yearning for his homeland Kashmir.“When I look at or visualise a frame, I relate all my past, present and future states to that frame,” says Shabir Hussain Santosh, HOD Art Department, DAV Public School, Srestha Vihar. Hailing from Kashmir, born in Delhi and a fine art graduate, Shabir feels intensely connected to Kashmir and relates to all his past, present and future when looking at a frame or even while visualising one. Shabir is a recipient of numerous awards, recognition and scholarships in the field of painting and has executed numerous commissioned works, book illustrations and poster projects for UNICEF, Ministry of Home Affairs and Delhi Police among others.
